Your Other 8 Hours

Podcast Description

ABOUT THE PODCAST There is nothing more valuable than what most people call their “free time.” Nothing can radically improve your life more than your other 8 hours. This blog is about life and money. It’s about how to radically increase your happiness and make more money by using your other 8 hours. But what are the “other 8 hours” anyway? The answer is more than you think. The other 8 hours are those precious hours of the day when you are not working or sleeping. How you spend the other 8 hours determines where you are in life, your education, the satisfaction you have with your relationships, your bank account balance, your happiness, and just about everything else that is important to you. The time you spend sleeping and the time you spend working will, at most, keep you right where you are. But if you invest the other 8 hours — even a couple of hours once in awhile — they can radically improve your life. In fact, I’d go so far as to say the other 8 hours may be the most effective thing that can transform your life. You lose 8 hours to sleep. You sell 8 hours to work. So if you waste the other 8 hours, how can you ever expect to get ahead? The only way to get a life and increase your financial security is to use the other 8 hours to create: This can mean starting a business, working on a side project, inventing, learning something new, and ultimately, increasing your human capital.
